“It has long been known that LSU prepared more than 13,000 of its cadets to enter World War II as young officers trained and equipped to lead America’s armed forces,” said Randy Gurie, executive director of the Cadets of the Ole War Skule. “LSU and Texas A&M continue to debate which institution, after the military academies, can claim the distinction of having contributed the most officers to World War II. But, if you ask any present or former the Cadet of the Ole War Skule, the answer is a resounding ‘LSU!’”

And the beat goes on...

I swear it's like these two schools have been locked in mortal combat while falling into a bottomless pit for eternity. It's about time we were back in the same conference again. 98 years is a long time to wait.

I'm laughing that you're trying to compare your Corps to ours.

Our Corps >>>>>

No debate needed

But again. I'm proud of our history. Yes I believe the mandatory Corps enrollment helped us pre WWII and hurt us post WWII. But all I care about is what has happened semi-recently. LSU has accomplished more in the last 10 years than A&M has ever. But with our SEC move and Kevin Sumlin we appear to be on a pretty steep projections upwards. I hope, and honestly believe, it will bring us a national championship soon.

I just hope after it does our coach doesn't end up having even more success at one of our rivals
